Question

I was doubtful of his honesty

Answer 1

Answer:

A negative sentence is the opposite of an affirmative (positive sentence) and expresses an opposing idea. It contains a negative word like 'no', 'not', 'never' etc along with the main verb or words like 'nobody', 'no one', etc. An affirmative (or positive) sentence does not contain any such negative word.

Option A is an affirmative sentence as it does not contain any negative word as mentioned above. However, it conveys a meaning which is opposite to the meaning of the original sentence. Hence, this option is incorrect.

Option B is incorrect as it contains the negative word, 'not'. Hence it is a negative sentence.

Option C is an affirmative sentence as it does not contain any negative word as mentioned above. It conveys the same meaning as that of the original sentence. Hence, this option is correct.

Option D is an affirmative sentence as it does not contain any negative word as mentioned above. However, it conveys a different meaning when compared with the original sentence. Hence, this option is incorrect.
